PREFACE 

As the bungalow grows more and more in favor the demand is for larger and more costly homes of this character; and as about one-half 
of the homes we design are of the two-story type we are devoting this entire issue to the two-story home. A very good idea can be obtained of the 
general effect of the exterior and of the floor arrangement from the engravings herein shown. The plans call for all the latest built-in features, such as 
fire places, buffets, book-cases, writing desks, seats, dressers, coolers, cupboards, linen closets, etc., etc. The houses are piped for furnace and have 
cement cellars in most every case. 

Plaints airad Specificaticms 

The working plans and specifications of any house shown in this book may be had for the price printed under each design herein. The plans 
include blue prints of four elevations, foundation plan, first floor plan, second floor plan where required, and not less than three sheets of details 

together with thirteen or more pages of closely typewritten specifications. Duplicate sets $2.50 per set if shipped with order, and if later under 

separate shipment we charge $5.00 per set. 

Plans to Order 

Should you desire an entirely different plan from any herein listed or as shown in any of our other books, we are fully prepared to draw 
anything to meet your requirements. We will redraw an entire new floor-plan of any house shown fori $15.00 extra for the first plan, and $12.00 
for the second floor, but not making any change in the exterior, furnishing the stock elevations and details at the price printed. Or we will make 
special plans of any arrangement or design you wish for a charge of $1 1.00 per room for any house not costing over $6000.00, counting basement, 
sleeping porches, and first story staircase halls or reception hall each as one room, but not counting bath rooms, porches or small halls. 

When we make special plans, we make preliminary pencil sketches of the floor plan and exterior and submit for criticism. After they have 
been returned, with corrections, if any, we finish them up and furnish three sets of blue prints and specifications complete. A deposit of about $10.00 
is required with order for special plans to cover cost of draughting labor of preliminary pencil sketches. 

For special plans of buildings costing over $6000.00 we will furnish you prices on submission of a rough sketch and other data you may 

have describing the character of the building.

■"THIS is a very good example of the far-famed 
bungalow carried out on the Swiss Chalet lines, 
the spacious porch with two exposures make this 
house suitable for a corner or inside lot. From the 
porch you may enter either the living room through 
the massive oak door, or the dining room through the 
artistic French windows. Off from the living room 
is the den, containing the fire place, extending across 
the front end of this room. The patio or court back 
of the living room is an unique arrangement and can 
be made beautiful by the use of a fountain and potted 
plants. The second floor sleeping rooms are a delight 
to any one living in a picturesque country. With the 
three exposures, one can obtain a view from every 
direction. The living room, dining room and den have 
hardwood floors, beam ceiling wainscoting, etc. This 
plan is an exceptionally good one and will be a show 
place to any community. Blue prints of complete 
plans, details and specifications of this bungalow fur¬ 
nished for $15.00.

S DOMESTIC architecture is our spe¬ 
cialty, we have endeavored to produce 
the very finest specimen of each individual 
type. This beautiful home has so many 
qualities of unusual merit and such an 
inviting air about it that it at once appeals to the family wishing a home of true distinction. The interior 
is arranged in a most practical manner around a large inner court. This court, with its splashing fountain, 
is protected from the elements by a large skylight which affords an abundance of light and air, and its 
convenient location in regard to the remainder of the house makes this design a very popular one. The 
exterior treatment may be called a “California mission type”, but in the true sense it is an adaptation of 
that style to domestic architecture, with our own design incorporated to no small degree. To be truthful, 
this is a “De Luxe” home in every respect. The deep red tile roof, white cement plastered walls on meta) 
lath, and the entire scheme is an exceptionally artistic combination of art and design. Our price for the 
plans and specifications for this home is $12.00. The plans will be furnished free if we build this house 
for you.

T O THOSE seeking a plan of a home truly beautiful, a little different and with an 
excellent combination of six rooms, we most heartily recommend this. The design is 
very unique and at the same time most practical. The break across the gables give it a 
very quaint air and truly homelike character. The type is typically that of the southwest, 
and its whole idea shows our efforts to product a home, not merely a structure. The 
exterior treatment is “up to the minute”. Resawed siding laid in alternately wide and 
narrow courses form the weatherboarding. The pillars and porch walls are of brick 
plastered with white cement plaster. White composition roofing is used, which adds 
greatly to the rest of the scheme. Plans and specifications for this bungalow are $10.00. 
If we build for you we will furnish the plans free.

Z'”' ALIFORNIA is world famous for its beautiful designs of homes and bungalows. 

In this example we have an ideal type of the bungalow home. The broad, rambling 
lines are very suggestive of the southland. Neither have we overlooked the two most 
important factors of home planning, utility and comfort. A glance at the plan will show 
its features of comfort as well as its practical layout. The exterior treatment, from the 
white composition roof to its weatherboarding of shakes and massive brick columns, show 
taste, culture and refinement both as regards detail and harmony. We will furnish the 
plans and specifications for this “nobby” little bungalow for $10.00. Free plans if we

UUNGALOW COURTS are becoming very popular and bid fair to continue so as long as our cities grow and increase in population. We 
have illustrated three and four-room bungalows built in the form of a court. The particular designs embodied in the illustration are numbers 
297, 285, 286, 292, and 293, all of which are most ideal for this purpose. The three and four-room bungalows being best adapted to 

this use, we have used them for illustrations. However, bungalows of any size might be used with equal success, requiring, of course, a lot or lots 
proportionately larger. We are in a position to produce any combination for use as a court, and we assure you of satisfaction. Consult us on 
any matter pertaining to Bungalow Courts if you wish designs or a combination of designs with snap and character to them.

OUR DEPARTMENT OF BUILDING CONSTRUCTION 

It stands to reason that after having studied on and worked out a set of plans for a client, we are more familiar with his ideas than 
a firm who never saw the plans before. It is also evident we can carry out those ideals more readily and with less expense and annoyance 
to the Owner than those not so familiar with his wishes. 

Confinement to Design only causes one to become narrow and impractical in the line of construction itself. Those who confine 
their efforts to building are liable to neglect their artistic instincts. 

We have put forth every effort to avoid either of these conditions and have worked with an end in view to combine the greatest 
possible art and design consistent with true economy and good construction. 

Our designer and draughtsmen and our foremen on the jobs co-operate, thus producing an interest in the job that would 
otherwise be impossible. 

No matter how small your building is it will receive the greatest of interest and attention from the foreman as well as the super¬ 
intendents sent from the Office. “All our clients are our friends—we solicit investigation.” 

Yours for a better home, 

DE LUXE BUILDING CO.
